I installed renegade public tools, but I can't see my mod folders when I open the level edit folder.
However, when I am in level edit I can click on "save as" and browse to see the folders, but they have a lock symbol on them. It's pretty weird:

index.php?t=getfile&id=14803&private=0

Go to a desired folder (in this case LevelEdit) and click this button:
index.php?t=getfile&id=14807&private=0

Thanks for the tips guys, I'll give it a try. Smile

First time it's ever happened to me.

//Edit

Thanks guys, compat view worked. It takes me tot he virtual app data foldfer where Windows has now decided to store this data.

Just a tip in case anyone else ever reads this thread. Open level edit with "Run as Administrator" and it will now create these folders in the same directory as level edit and you wont have to mess around with compatibility view and the virtual app data folders.
